This week is an episode with a difference. I am so excited that we are finally bringing a Wellness Couch event to Adelaide. S this week I have decided to share the talk that I did for The Wellness Basecamp in Brisbane, to give you an insight into what I will be talking about (in an extended version) in Adelaide. It is all based around my favourite quote “Be Silly, Be Honest, Be Kind”. I hope you enjoy it.

Don’t forget if you want to hear the longer version of this talk as well as Damian Kristof, Marcus Pearce, Kim Morrison and the boys from Smashed Avocado then head to www.thewellnessbasecamp.com and use the code DRBRETTHILL to get 2 for 1 tickets!

This week Brett interviews Commonwealth Games weightlifter Steph Davies about her journey to the games and how she takes a different approach to your average games lifter. Steph has been on quite a journey in terms of her fitness, her relationships, her body image and her finances and she shares the whole lot in this eye opening interview. Steph has even resorted to selling her own furniture to fund her passion! So tune in to see just how much an athlete sacrifices to not only get to the games but to do it in her own holistic way. And while you are at it why not drop her a line to see how you can support her on her journey?

Nick shares how he manages it, how he keeps his health on track and what he is doing to take his message of Paleo and stoicism to more and more fire departments and more and more communities.

This week Brett interviews Glen Lomman from BPM Holistic Wellness and Adelaide Paleo about his personal journey and his experiences with cold thermogenesis. It is a topic that seems to be coming up a bit lately in the Paleo community and one that a number of friends of Brett’s are seemingly having success with so we thought it was about time we dove in. Find out why people are deliberately dunking themselves into ice baths, how breath work is an important part of the process and just who is this crazy dutchman they call The Ice Man. Tune in for a fascinating episode of That Paleo Show.

This week Brett interviews owner of Tribali Foods Angela Mavridis about what she learnt from her Greek Yiayia (grandma) and how it has influenced her food philosophy and now her company. Growing up in America as the daughter of a fast food hamburger shop owner Angela was heavily inflenced by summer vacations to Greece in her youth and so after a time spent being vegan, vegetarian, raw and overdoing the protein shakes, bars and supplements she returned to her roots for her own diet, embracing real food sources of healthy fats and proteins. Sufficiently inspired she now helps others get an easy source of healthy protein with her beef pattie range that is quickly expanding into an even bigger range.

It has been almost 3 years since we last had one of Brett’s favourite recipe sources (and people) Jo Whitton on the show so we thought it was time for a refresh. Jo shares with us the amazing growth of the Quirky Cooking tribe over the last 3 years and as she shares what she has been up to it is not hard to see why! As always Jo has been sharing delicious food with a difference. Inspired as always by her own families journey to healing their guts Jo shares how this has become even more of a focus and it is the authenticity, passion and love with which she shares her message that makes Quirky cooking so loved. it is obvious that Jo is not one for following trends or sales. She (and Fouad) have a genuine passion to help her followers regain health for themselves and their families. So tune in for some great information, inspiration and food ideas around gut health.

This week Brett has a great chat with Fouad Kassab from Quirky Cooking about rewilding. Fouad shares his amazing journey from living in war torn Lebanon on food provided by international aid, to becoming a food blogger and now a best selling cookbook author with one of our other favourites Jo Whitton (stay tuned for her next week!). Fouad shares with us the 4 ways that he feels we have become alienated from living a healthy life. Alienation from nature, alienation from ourselves, alienation from others and alienation from our purpose in a fascinating episode that covers much more than just incredible cooking recipes. So tune in for a must listen episode of That Paleo Show.
